I think that in the last few years the topic of virtualization became
more and more popular among quite some people in the "Linux-world".

The main Linux-distributions had to make a choice between supporting
XEN, OpenVZ, KVM/qemu, UML, or Linux V Server.

XEN en KVM do support non-Linux OS-es as a guest, which could be an
advantage for some people in some circumstances.

RedHat did choose for XEN i think :
